Position switches are used to position, control and monitor the moving parts on machines and systems. Because they meet the requirements of the EN 50 047 and IEC 60947-5-1 product standards, they can also be used as a position switch with a safety function. Series 8060/2 position switches are approved for use in hazardous areas of Zones 1, 2, 21 and 22.

In conjunction with a safety door guard and the corresponding circuitry, the PL position switches fulfil the requirements of "e" in accordance with EN ISO 13849-1, or up to SIL 3 in accordance with EN 62061. They are identified with the character to signify positive opening. There are snap- and slow-action versions with different types of contacts as well as with a variety of different actuating elements.
